I love that their first thought is each other in this moment. You can see them both individually look at the other at separate times in amongst all the celebrating, and then Anthony makes a b-line straight to Ian, who looks like he goes in to give him a high-five at first until he realises Anthony is going in for a hug 🥹
Ler Chigiri and ler Kunigami with ♥️I love you pls?
I have decided that Kunigami is a dorky flirt and Chigiri loves it but won't admit it. That's it- that's officially canon now I won't be taking any criticism on the matter. (Lols! I gotcha covered, anon! :D)
I love you- "You smiled at me! I think I'm in love!"
“Did heaven lose an angel? Cause I think I found him.” Kunigami leaned into his hand with a smile, eyes dancing when Chigiri blushed.
“What? Sh-Shut up, that was lame.” The redhead looked away, turning his attention back to untangling his hairdryer.
“I could do better if I had you by my side.” Kunigami winked, chuckling softly as he watched his boyfriend’s face darken. “What do you say? Wanna date?”
“We’re already dating! Ugh, where’d you get those? 101 Lame Pick Up Lines, 1st Edition?” Chigiri turned his entire body to the other, plugging in the now detangled device. “Maybe it’s time to move on to the second one.”
“Aww, so you do like them!” Kunigami cooed, closing the gap and wrapping his arms around his boyfriend from behind, nuzzling his neck. “You must be Wi-fi, cause I’m feeling the connection!”
“Gohohod, that was tehehehrible!” Chigiri scrunched up, giggles bubbling over his lips at the ticklish feeling. “Gehehet off, I got to dry my hahahair!”
“You smiled at me! I think I’m in love!” Kunigami grinned, bringing a hand in to gently squeeze his side, getting a proper bout of laughter from the other. “I hope you know CPR; that look alone took my breath away!”
“Kuhuhuhuhnigahhahami, stahhahahhaap!” Chigiri whined through his laughter, face a pretty shade of pink from the other’s antics. “Yohoohohou’re so annohohohohoying!”
“You know what's annoying? Just how freaking cute you are!” Kunigami buried his face into Chigiri’s neck, growling playfully as his fingers danced against his skin. “I just wanna eat you up, that’s how cute you are!”
“KUuhuhuuuhhnigaahahhamiihi-EHEHEHHHEHE!” Chigiri all but shrieked when the ginger grabbed his thigh, squeezing gently. “STAHAHHAHAP THAHHAHHAHT!”
“Can’t stop! You must be a magnet, cause I’m attracted to you!” Kunigami kissed the other’s cheek in a loud, sloppy gesture, finally retreating his hands. Chigiri elbowed him in the stomach, making a face at the noise. “Hehe, you really are adorable, Princess.”
“Get off me before I burn your nose hairs off.” Chigiri waved the hairdryer at him like a weapon, giggling when Kunigami feigned fear and rolled away. “Ugh, I can’t stand you!”
“Hehe, love you too, babe.” Kunigami smiled, heart racing when Chigiri smiled back.
"There's only ever been you" was in the book! ("I was out of my mind in love" was not, but what a line!) and I definitely squealed when it happened, remembering it lol. here's the scene if you/anyone else is curious:
“He fell asleep first. I’d heard something about how you weren’t supposed to sleep with a fire still burning, so I waited for it to die down. I watched Conrad sleep for a while. He looked like a little boy, the way his hair fell on his forehead and his eyelashes hit his cheek. I didn’t remember him ever looking that young. When I was sure he was asleep, I leaned in, I whispered, “Conrad. There’s only you. For me, there’s only ever been you.”
OH YEAH I WAS SURE THAT ONE WAS IN THE BOOK. Screaming.
I’m not gonna lie, sometimes the direct from the book quotes come across a little noticeable because they don’t always feel 100% natural dialogue wise (not this one but the cold hearted one was a LITTLE stand out as pulled straight from the book because of that even though I still ate it up). I absolutely love that Jenny is getting to do this for her books, though.
listen there really was just something about how in the book, snow’s 3-page descent from hesitant lover boy to deluded psychopath happens entirely in his mind. lucy gray gives him no indication whatsoever that she suspects him, that she’s going to leave or betray him. he’s just sitting quietly in the cabin waiting for her to return when that seed of calculated suspicion, which he has needed to survive the capitol, takes a hold of him and chokes the life out of any goodness left inside him. it really drives home your terror as a reader that “oh my god did he kill her? did she escape? what happened to her? why would he even think that?” in a way that when the movie had to adjust for visualization it lost some of that holy shit this guy has lost it emphasis.
